I think this will be of interest to a lot of people here on DA! A new E-zine, Dante's Heart, due to be issued in December is calling for entries from writers and artists who specialise in fairytale, myth, fantasy and folklore. Have a look at their site at www.dantesheart.com/ and send them a submission of your (as yet) unpublished work This will be a great oppurtunity for some of the talented writers and artists here on DA to get their work out to the public...and I can't wait to read their first issue, it should be fantastic!

Hello, possums, hope this finds you all well and the creative juices flowing.

Seeing as it's almost spring here, I'm glad to finally get to use the Spring Fairy CSS made by Lilyas. I did the graphic for it

*pats self on back*

Heh...it really was an interesting experience, I enjoyed working with Lily

I , as usual, should apologize for my lack of participation lately, and a huge 'Thank you!' to anyone who has faved my work or added my gallery to your watch list is in order! I've taken so long to answer many of these faves that I decided instead of saying 'Thank you!' 500 times--days or weeks after the fact--I'd rather visit each persons gallery and return some of those faves and watches instead So expect to  see me sneaking in and out of your gallery soon!

Things have been ok here...I had a fantastic visit with my daughter recently, but have been so down since she had to fly home to the US. We're hoping she can come back for Christmas though, and I'm trying to keep that in mind rather than dwelling on things I can't change (like the distance between Australia and the US...who's the smart aleck who put that freaking big ocean there, eh? I gotta bone to pick with him/her!). I wish I had the luxury of staying in bed for a couple of weeks at the moment, but then who really has that luxury, sheesh.

Deep breathing helps, ever notice that? When you're miserable, anxious and stressed, breath deeply and slowly. It really does help

It will get better...and Christmas isn't really all that far away, right?

Right.

Bah...enough depressing stuff!

Something interesting my 8 year old son told me recently...

"Mum, there will never be such a thing as time travel."

"How could you know that?" I asked.

"Because if there were, then we would have seen people from the future come back by now."

Kids are funny, aren't they? What a thing for an 8 year old to sit around thinking about. Clever reasoning. And he's right, I've never seen or heard of a person coming back from the future to give us the low down on what to expect. Either they're damn good at hiding or they just never showed up. Which means we shouldn't waste our time trying to build a time machine. Right???

I've rediscovered the Traveling Wilburys lately, bought their collected works this week. Everytime I hear Roy Orbison's clean clear voice it chokes me up Jeez, that man could sing. I'm glad he had the experience of taking part in the group before he passed away, they seemed to have a blast making music together.

I'm done rambling for now Here are some recent find from here on DA, I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

PS, I meant to ask if anyone else is missing the comments from some deviations? I just noticed yesterday that the comments have completely disappeared from a few of my deviations, it's really odd!
